(1)Total revenues (as reported) includes the expected unfavourable foreign currency impact of approximately $30 million in Fiscal 2027.

Current report

(2)Total revenues growth from Content, Business Network, ITOM, and Cybersecurity (Enterprise) product categories in constant currency excludes the expected unfavourable foreign currency impact of approximately $25 million in Fiscal 2027. Divestitures did not impact these product categories.

(3)Total cloud services and subscriptions revenues growth from Content, Business Network, ITOM, and Cybersecurity (Enterprise) product categories in constant currency excludes the expected unfavourable foreign currency impact of approximately $5 million in Fiscal 2027. Divestitures did not impact these product categories.

Current report

Divestitures and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations can affect the comparability of our financial results between periods, particularly with respect to revenues. We believe setting Fiscal 2027 outlook metrics in constant currency and excluding divested revenues enhances transparency and facilitates meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our underlying performance. See “Impact on Revenues of Divested Businesses and Foreign Currency” (under “Result of Operations”) for additional information.

Current report

Furthermore, during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2026, we launched an end-to-end enterprise assessment to identify actions to lay the foundation for our multi-year plan to grow shareholder value. This assessment focuses on a number of areas including our go-to-market strategy, portfolio composition and differentiation, sales and marketing enablement, our talent and culture, and execution model. We intend to complete this enterprise assessment in early Fiscal 2027 and, as a result, our outlook metrics by product categories, or other items, may be adjusted to align to changes as a result of the enterprise assessment. See “Risk Factors” included in Item 1A of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Current report

We are a leading provider of secure data context for enterprise AI.

Current report

The comparability of our operating results for the year ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the year ended June 30, 2025, was impacted by the divestitures of the eDOCS and Vertica businesses. The Company’s consolidated results excluded the results of eDOCS beginning January 12, 2026, and the results of Vertica beginning May 11, 2026. As such, consolidated operating results for the year ended June 30, 2026 include the operating results of the eDOCS and Vertica businesses up to their respective dates of divestiture and consolidated operating results for the years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 include the full-year operating results for the eDOCS and Vertica businesses. For more details on the Company’s divestitures, see Note 19 “Acquisitions and Divestitures,” to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Current report

The following tables illustrate the revenues contributed by the divested businesses during the years ended June 30, 2026, 2025 and 2024.

Current report

In connection with the eDOCS and Vertica divestitures, the Company entered into separate transition services agreements (TSAs) with NetDocuments and Rocket Software, respectively, pursuant to which the Company agreed to provide certain transition services for up to 12 months following the closing date for the eDOCS divestiture and up to 18 months following the closing date for the Vertica divestiture.

Current report

Impact on Revenues of Divested Businesses and Foreign Currency

Current report

Divestitures and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations can affect the comparability of our financial results between periods, particularly with respect to Total revenues. As a global company, changes in foreign currency exchange rates may have an impact on our reported results. Generally, a weaker U.S. Dollar relative to the currencies in which we conduct business has a favorable impact on our reported results, while a stronger U.S. Dollar has an unfavorable impact. We calculate our results adjusted for foreign currency fluctuations (constant currency) by translating current period results of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect during the comparable prior period. We believe disclosing the impacts of divestitures and foreign exchange rate fluctuations on Total revenues enhances transparency and facilitates meaningful period-to-period comparisons of our underlying performance.

Current report

The following tables show the impact of divested businesses and foreign currency on Total revenues for the years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

Current report

The change was primarily driven by increases in the Content, Business Network, ITOM and ADM product categories, partly offset by decreases in the Cybersecurity (SMB & Consumer), Cybersecurity (Enterprise) and Analytics product categories. Geographically, the overall change was attributable to an increase in EMEA of $93.8 million, an increase in Asia Pacific of $4.8 million, and an increase in Americas of $3.5 million.

We believe our strategic priorities position us well to create both near and long-term shareholder value through organic and inorganic growth, greater capital efficiency and improved profitability. As an organization, we are focused on our three strategic priorities:

Previous report

•Expanding our competitive advantage: We believe we are well positioned in our key markets to increase our competitive AI-first advantage through our product cycle and leading with Business AI, Business Clouds and Business Security.

Previous report

We are committed to continuous innovation and invest in our business to increase the value of our offerings to our existing customer base and new customers, which includes Global 10,000 companies (G10K), SMBs and consumers. The G10K are the world’s largest companies, ranked by estimated total revenues, as well as the world's largest governments and global organizations. More valuable products, coupled with our established global partner program, lead to greater distribution and cross-selling opportunities which further help us to achieve organic growth. Over the last three fiscal years, we have invested a cumulative total of $2.28 billion in R&D or 14.8% of cumulative revenue for that three-year period. With our innovation roadmap delivered, we believe we have fortified our support for customer choice: private cloud, public cloud, off-cloud, and API cloud.

Previous report

Looking ahead, innovation continues to move to the cloud. Businesses rely on a mix of public and private clouds, managed services, and off-cloud options. We’re modernizing our infrastructure and building on our OpenText Cloud investments to meet customers where they are. Our cloud-native applications, combined with public cloud partners and managed services, provide secure, scalable solutions. With multi-tenant SaaS and embedded AI across our portfolio—including Titanium X—we aim to deliver greater flexibility, productivity, and choice.

Previous report

•Total revenue growth: We are committed to total revenue growth through organic initiatives, innovation and acquisitions.

Previous report

We believe in a programmatic approach to growth through tuck-in acquisitions or when they align with our strategic priorities. We expect to carry out programmatic divestitures, when that is the best opportunity to monetize long-term returns for mature products. We will remain flexible and allocate our capital accordingly to the highest return scenario. We regularly evaluate such opportunities within the Information Management market and at any time may be in various stages of discussions with respect to such opportunities. This strategy will often align to how we assess which of our products are performing compared to outperforming in growth and our capital allocation revenue growth expectations.

Previous report

•Achieving Operational Excellence: We focus on driving margin and earnings expansion, free cash flow growth, and capital return. We focus on expanding profitability so as to drive cash flow growth, which helps fuel our innovation and capital allocation priorities.

Customer support revenues consist of revenues from our customer support and maintenance agreements. These agreements allow our customers to receive technical support, enhancements and upgrades to new versions of our software products when available. Customer support revenues are generated from support and maintenance relating to current year sales of software products and from the renewal of existing maintenance agreements for software licenses sold in prior periods. Therefore, changes in Customer support revenues do not always correlate directly to the changes in license revenues from period to period. The terms of support and maintenance agreements are typically twelve months, and are renewable, generally on an annual basis, at the option of the customer. Our management reviews our customer support renewal rates on a quarterly basis, and we use these rates as a method of monitoring our customer service performance.

(7)Adjustment relates to differences between the GAAP-based tax provision rate of approximately 25% and a Non-GAAP-based tax rate of approximately 24%; these rate differences are due to the income tax effects of items that are excluded for the purpose of calculating Non-GAAP-based net income. Such excluded items include amortization, share-based compensation, special charges (recoveries) and other income (expense), net. Also excluded are tax benefits/expense items unrelated to current period income such as changes in reserves for tax uncertainties and valuation allowance reserves and “book to return” adjustments for tax return filings and tax assessments. Beginning in Fiscal 2025, net tax benefits arising from the internal reorganization that occurred in Fiscal 2017 have been fully utilized and are no longer included. In arriving at our Non-GAAP-based tax rate of approximately 24%, we analyzed the individual adjusted expenses and took into consideration the impact of statutory tax rates from local jurisdictions incurring the expense.
